Republic P-47 C Thunderbolt 41-6246 HL-F

Identifying stamps and serial numbers ("961031-A") showing that this is from the Thunderbolt wreck (though this is disputed- follow the link if you want to join in), rather than from the nearby Beaufighter .

This is from the largest collection of bits found, down by the side of the lake.

There is definitely more we did not find, as we were led astray by the next find. We will (as ever) be back to finish up.
